London, February 14 (ANI): Cops probing Chris Browns alleged assault on his girlfriend Rihanna are also trying to find out whether an injury that latter covers by wearing an eye patch also resulted from a bust-up in the past. Police sources in Los Angeles have revealed that Rihanna suffered a scratched cornea last year, following which she began wearing a patch to cover her red and sensitive eye. The Umbrella star suffered a bloody nose, swollen lip and facial bruising in an alleged bust-up with 19-year-old R n B star Brown before last Sundays Grammy awards.
